In order to identify sequence elements responsible for the regulation of mesophyll_specific expression, the 5′ flanking regions of -1 195 bp, -1 102 bp, -768 bp, and -644 bp upstream of the translation initiation ATG codon were fused to the reporter gene encoding β_glucuronidase (GUS) and transferred to rice via particle bombardment. Analysis of the 5′ promoter deletions identified that a 93 bp fragment between -1 195 bp and -1 102 bp is essential for directing mesophyll specific expression. High constitutive expression of GUS reporter gene was found in the -768 deletion lines and another two deletion series. These results indicate the great potential utility of the promoter in rice biotechnology.展开更多

[Method] Three surveys were carried out. There were 5 fixed test clumps in each plot. The number of total plants and disease plants and disease progression in each fixed clump were recorded. The correlation effectiveness was calculated based on the growth rate of disease index. Significance analysis was performed with Dun- can's new multiple range method (DMRT). [Result] The difenoconazole-azoxystrobin 32.5% SC had a good efficacy for rice sheath blight, and its efficacy increased with the increase of dose. If sprayed according to the dose of 450 ml/hm2 5 days before the beginning of heading stage of rice, difenoconazole-azoxystrobin 32.5% SC would have better effects on controlling rice sheath blight with correlation effectiveness reaching up to 95.14%, which was 2.06% higher than that of control drug (trifloxys- trobin-tebuconazole 75% WG, 225 g/hm2). [Conclusion] Treated with difenoconazole- azoxystrobin 32.5% SC with dose of 450 ml/hm2, rice would have green upper leaves and less yellow middle and lower leaves. Moreover, the yield was in- creased significantly. The difenoconazole-azoxystrobin 32.5% SC had good safety. Therefore, difenoconazole-azoxystrobin 32.5% SC had a good application prospect in production.展开更多

The study results show that about one half of the paddysoils developed from yellow soil, purple soil, alluvial soil, etc. in Sichuan Province were insufficient in siliconsupply. Critical values for silicon fertilization were 98 mg kg ̄(-1) available Si in the paddy soils and < 112.8gkg ̄(-1) SiO_2 in the rice plants. A SiO_2 content of rice plant over 121.6g kg ̄(-1) and a SiO_2/N ratio maintainedat about 12 were required for gaining a rice yield of 7500 kg ha ̄(-1). The yield increase by silicon fertilizationwas due to the improvement of silicon nutrition in rice plants and the balance of SiO_2/N ratio, and the reasonfor enhanced resistance to diseases and pests was concerned with the inhibition of luxury N absorption andthe raising of plant SiO_2/N ratio. Silicon fertilization tended to balance the uptake of N, P and K by riceplant .展开更多

The 1 195 lip 5'-flanking region which started from the translation initiation ATG codon was fused to reporter gene encoding beta-glucuronidase (GUS) and stably transferred to rice via particle bombardment. Strong GUS activity was detected in leaves and leaf sheaths of transgenic rice, but not in culms and roots. Histochemical localization revealed that GUS expression was exclusively restricted to mesophyll cells in transgenic rice. Our results indicate that the 1 195 bp fragment contains all the cis-elements required for directing mesophyll-specific expression pattern in rice.展开更多

It has a global responsibility in the conservation of genetic resources of banana, sweet potato and citrus, and national responsibility for the conservation of crops, such as rice, tropical fruits and some herbs and medicinal plant species. MARDI rice seed genebank at Seberang Prai in the state of Penang was established in 1984 and currently holds 12,770 registered rice accessions, of which 53% are of local origin. In addition, MARDI also conserves genes in the field, mostly for underutilized tropical fruit genetic resources. At present, about 168 species of underutilized, rare and wild tropical fruit species consisting of about 2,000 accessions, the largest in the country, are being conserved. The species include "kuini" (Mangifera odorata), "bacang" (Mangifera foetida), "binjai" (Mangifera caesia), "cerapu" ( Garcinia praniana), "rambai" (Baccaurea motleyana), "asam gelugor" ( Garcinia atroviridis), "terap" (drthocarpus odoratissimus) and "pulasan" (Nephellium rambutan-ake). The accessions are mostly conserved ex situ in field genebanks located at the various MARDI stations throughout the country. Although the conservation of the various crop species genetic resources is important, the real challenge is enhancing its utilisation. The main objective of the paper was to share and disseminate information related to works conducted and strategies opted by MARDI on the conservation and utilization of crop genetic resources.

With the fertilizer applied, rice yield can be improved by 292.5-505.5 kg/hm2, with increase of 6.63%-10.92%; farmer’s incomes can be enhanced by 877.5-1 516.5 yuan/hm2, with net income growth of 783-1 422 yuan; output-to-input rate kept in 8.29-15.05. The increased rice yield is mainly contributed by the in-creases of setting percentage and thousand-seed weight, of which the former's role is more significant. Hence, the fertilizer can be widely applied in Lichuan and similar regions.展开更多

It is important to do the biological analyses in crops. In this study, the result showed that the chitinases were distributed into the whole genome in rice, and nearly the whole genome in maize expect for Chromosome 9. The clustering results showed that one out of three chitinases from maize and rice belonged to new groups, which were separated from those in the conformed Classes I-VII. The identification of most amino acid sequences was very low among the chitinases from rice and/or maize. It was inferred that the chitinases with different functions were relatively stable during plant evolution. The relationship of chitinases expression between leaf blade and anther was positively significant in maize, but not significant in rice. Additionally, the ratio of chitinases with up- or down-regulated expression in sensitive maize under Fusarium moniliforme inoculation was different from that in sensitive rice under Magnaporthe grisea inoculation. It might be result from different tissues infected by different fungi. The number of chitinases from resistant maize was less than that from sensitive maize, which inferred that the resistant pathways on F. moniliforme should be not only chitin induced Pathogen-associated molecular PTI (patterns-triggered immunity) pathway, but also might include other PTI pathways that improve tolerance to F. moniliforme. The analysis of expression pattern of chitinases from maize and rice under fungi inoculation will be contributed into further research on the defense mechanism of fungi in crops.展开更多

With the fertilizer applied, rice yield can be improved by 292.5-505.5 kg/hm2, with increase of 6.63%-10.92%; farmer’s incomes can be enhanced by 877.5-1 516.5 yuan/hm2, with net income growth of 783-1 422 yuan; output-to-input rate kept in 8.29-15.05. The increased rice yield is mainly contributed by the in-creases of setting percentage and thousand-seed weight, of which the former's role is more significant. Hence, the fertilizer can be widely applied in Lichuan and similar regions.

文摘[Objective]This study aimed to screen toxin mutant of Dickeya zeae(Erwinia chrysanthemi pv.zeae)and investigate its biological characters.[Method]We obtained a toxin mutant strain D.zeae Ech7-3-42 by using acridine orange as a mutagenic agent and compared their biological characteristics and virulence between the toxin mutant and wild strain.[Result]There was no significant difference in pectin lyase,protease,cellulase and the production of extracellular polysaccharide and lipopolysaccharide,but significant difference in toxin biological activities and virulence.Ech7-3-42 mutant did not produce toxin,as well as the loss of virulence on rice and HR on tobacco,but did not lose the ability to soft rot on potato.Mutant strain Ech7-3-42 can infect rice root and then enriched in the root neck and stalk,but it could not cause rice foot rot.Dickeya zeae(wild and mutant strain)could be detected by PCR in the root neck and below the 1-2 cm long stem area,but could not be detected in the leaves.[Conclusion]We believed that toxin may be one of the important factors for D.zeae virulence on rice.
文摘Through pot tests of early rice and late rice in Cd polluted environment(soil Cd content,1.0 mg/kg),the inhibition and control effects of single application of organic fertilizers involving pig manure and biochar,and their combined application with alkaline amendments involving lime and oyster shell powder on soil Cd activation and rice Cd absorption were compared.And the correlation between soil available Cd and rice grain Cd was discussed.The results showed that compared with CK which did not involve amendments,the grain yields of early rice and late rice increased by 15.52%~36.01%and 12.02%~27.28%,respectively,the grain Cd content decreased by 24.76%~64.53%and 4.93%~58.32%,respectively,and the grain Cd accumulation decreased by 22.27%~51.76%and 33.84%~46.95%,respectively,except for single pig manure treatment.In particular,the Cd reduction effect of biochar was significantly better than that of pig manure,and the combined application with oyster shell powder was better than that with lime;after the harvest of early and late rice,the available Cd content in soil applied with amendments decreased by 35.00%~65.88%and 30.93%~68.57%,respectively,compared with CK.Further analysis showed that the soil available Cd content and rice grain Cd content could fit the linear equation well(R2>0.70,P<0.05),which demonstrated that the combined application of organic fertilizers and alkaline amendments can quickly reduce the Cd content of rice grain by passivating soil available Cd,and the combined application between biochar and oyster shell powder had a better effect.
文摘[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of different rates of 10% cyhalofop-butyl EW for control of Poaceae weeds in transplanted rice in China. [Method] The experimental and eco-friendly herbicide, 10% cyhalofop-butyl EW, was applied in field trials in 2013 to investigate its efficacy in five representa-tive rice producing areas, one in each of the provinces Anhui, Hunan, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Liaoning. [Result] The results showed that 10% cyhalofop-butyl EW could effectively control Poaceae weeds in transplanted rice without negative effects on the rice crop. The optimal application rate of 10% cyhalofop-butyl EW was found to be 750-1 500 ml/hm2. [Conclusion] The study confirmed that 10% cyhalofop-butyl EW has clear potential for wide-spread adoption in rice production systems.
文摘The objective of this research is to investigate the impact of infection by the long-headed flour beetle m the specification of flour and its products, during three periods of infection 20, 40 and 60 days, which was confirmed by experiments, as was the impact of periods 40 and 60 days are clear, and that laboratory tests showed a significant decrease in weight, volume and specific volume of the loaf manufactured of infested flour as comparing with an uninfected one. The weight of the original sample was 150 g., has dropped to 135 g for the 60 days infection period and 35 ℃ of incubator. Deterioration of external features of the manufactured loaf also appeared (color, crust appearance, degree of baking and proliferation line), and attributes of the interior (granulation, color, smell and test of pulp). The total sample size was 465 mL while it was 288.9 mL for the 60 days infected sample. The color of flour also changed at the same period of infection and reached 6.61 stacks, while that of the uninfected was 3.7 stacks. The proportion of protein for the infected flour dipped to 21.39% as comparing with 28% for the health sound. The Amylograph, Farinograph and Extensograph tests showed considerable differences for many characters of dough made by the infected and non-infected flour. For example the value of B.U. was 980 for the infected flour and 560 B.U. for the uninfected one, and the arrival time was 4.18 min for the 60 days infection and 1.3 rain for the healthy. Also the value of the Critical Coefficient of Dough was 188 B.U. as compared with 64 B.U. for the uninfected sample.

文摘Chitinases play an important role in regulating plant growth and development, especially defending themselves from fungal pathogens. It is important to do the biological analyses in crops. In this study, the result showed that the chitinases were distributed into the whole genome in rice, and nearly the whole genome in maize expect for Chromosome 9. The clustering results showed that one out of three chitinases from maize and rice belonged to new groups, which were separated from those in the conformed Classes I-VII. The identification of most amino acid sequences was very low among the chitinases from rice and/or maize. It was inferred that the chitinases with different functions were relatively stable during plant evolution. The relationship of chitinases expression between leaf blade and anther was positively significant in maize, but not significant in rice. Additionally, the ratio of chitinases with up- or down-regulated expression in sensitive maize under Fusarium moniliforme inoculation was different from that in sensitive rice under Magnaporthe grisea inoculation. It might be result from different tissues infected by different fungi. The number of chitinases from resistant maize was less than that from sensitive maize, which inferred that the resistant pathways on F. moniliforme should be not only chitin induced Pathogen-associated molecular PTI (patterns-triggered immunity) pathway, but also might include other PTI pathways that improve tolerance to F. moniliforme. The analysis of expression pattern of chitinases from maize and rice under fungi inoculation will be contributed into further research on the defense mechanism of fungi in crops.
